I'm Back!
Sunday. 6.8.08 7:50 pm
Glenwood Springs was exactly what I needed.

We took off Saturday morning (Brian, Greg, and my friend Melissa) and we took the 2 and a half hour drive up there. Beautiful drive, never rained...nothing. We reserved a room at the hotel (will explain this later) and decided to go to the Glenwood Springs Adventure Park (right next to the hotel) while we waited to check into the hotel. We got there at about 10:30 and we couldn't check in until 4ish.

To get up to the adventure park, you had to take a gondola up to the top of the mountain:



There were a bunch of things to do up there at the top (go horseback riding, pan for gold (this was fake, of course), dig for fossils in the sand pit, climb the rock wall, etc...but we bought tickets to go into the cave for the cave tour. If you've never been in a cave before, I suggest going at least once. It was pretty cool. See how much Greg had fun!



He also had lots of fun looking in the wonky mirrors and playing in the sand:





We went back down the gondola and went to eat at the Village Inn (it's like Denny's). Then we went and checked into the hotel.

This hotel had a sweet indoor pool with a little kid water area (with a fountain and a lion's mouth slide) as well as a big kid water slide that you could go down. Greg had fun.



I know, the picture...you can't tell, but he did have fun. He went down the water slide twice before freaking out and not wanting to go on the slide anymore.

At this point in time, I realized that I had burned my arms pretty bad up on the hill and it hurts so bad! Had to go get some aloe and cool off. I always bring the sunblock...and never use it. I'm so bad.

This morning, we woke up and went to the Hot Springs Pool.



OMG...the water was so fantastic! The big pool was 93 to 98 degrees and it was fabulous! No awkward adjustments to get into the water...you could get right in and just swim. Greg loved it...not teeth chattering, no freezing his little butt off...it was perfect! They had a hot side of the pool as well. That side was 104 degrees (and Greg couldn't go in it). Imagine swimming in a hot tub...that's how this pool felt. It was great! The only bad part...it smelled like rotten eggs, but what hot spring/mineral pool does not smell something like that. The way the water felt...it was something you could ignore because you were having so much fun in the warm waters.

We left after the pool and drove until we hit Vail and drove around trying to find something to eat. Now, if I were made of money...we may have been able to eat in Vail Village, but we settled on Taco Bell (the strange thing...it was in a strip mall) and drove back to Denver.

All in all, a great vacation and I can't wait to get away again! Since Brian's going to be working 12 hours on Saturday and Sunday, if Melissa is up to it...we can go away Saturday/Sunday more often because no one will be home! I missed getting out with Melissa and doing things, but now we can since Brian's shifts changed.
